Let's get ready to give the ballot box another chance.
I'm not sure about that. After all, we gave it a chance in 2008, and the results were less than ideal. There was a great deal of hand-wringing and screaming, but the 2010 midterms didn't do much for us either. 2012 was supposed to be the "take back America" landslide, but that never materialized. In fact, it backfired in a few areas. In all three elections, voter turnout was shamefully low, and well below what pundits and analysts expected.

Will the gun issue get some folks to the polls? Perhaps, but they didn't get too fired up the last few rounds.

I really think this is going to have to be resolved through the courts.
